WOODWARD 5417-557 Speed Regulator
The WOODWARD 5417 - 557 is not a speed regulator but a communication device - DPC. It is a USB - RS - 232 converter cable used to connect a Woodward control or protection unit to a PC or laptop for configuration and monitoring purposes. Here are its features:
- Galvanic Isolation: It separates the PC / laptop side from the Woodward unit side through galvanic isolation, enhancing the safety and stability of the communication connection.
- Compact Size: With dimensions of approximately 85 mm x 50 mm x 22 mm and a weight of about 60 g (without cables), it is small and lightweight, making it easy to carry and install.
- High - speed Transmission: The maximum transmission speed on the UART side is 115,200 baud, and the maximum speed on the USB side is 12 Mbit / s (in line with the USB 2.0 standard), which can meet the needs of high - speed data transmission.
- Wide Temperature Range: It has an ambient operating temperature range of - 20 °C to + 70 °C and a storage temperature range of - 40 °C to + 85 °C, showing strong adaptability to different environmental temperatures.
- Power Supply: It is powered by 5 V via a USB connector on the host PC side.
This device is suitable for a wide range of Woodward power management and protection products, including non - XT Easygen devices. It plays an important role in the configuration and monitoring of Woodward - related equipment, facilitating users to perform parameter setting, status monitoring, and other operations on the equipment through a PC or laptop, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of equipment management and maintenance.
